Peak Copilot Suggestion

The irony of AI companies fighting over scraped data is peak Silicon Valley drama. OpenAI spent years vacuuming up the internet's content to train ChatGPT, and now they're clutching their pearls when DeepSeek does the same to them. It's like watching a digital version of "The Princess Bride" where the dude who stole everything is suddenly outraged when someone steals from him. Twenty years in tech has taught me one universal truth: there's nothing more sacred than the data you've already pilfered from someone else.

Ah, the utopian fantasy where developers actually use type systems properly instead of throwing AI at everything! Imagine a world where we didn't have to debug cryptic runtime errors at 2 AM because someone thought any was a perfectly acceptable type for everything. This futuristic paradise could be ours if people spent half the time they waste prompting ChatGPT on actually learning TypeScript properly. But no, we'd rather ask AI to generate 200 lines of untyped spaghetti code than write a proper interface. Who needs flying cars when you can have undefined is not a function?

Ah, the modern "full-stack" developer in their natural habitat! The meme brilliantly exposes what some devs mean by "full-stack" these days - just a browser with tabs open to Claude, ChatGPT, and Perplexity. It's like claiming you're a master chef because you have Uber Eats, DoorDash, and GrubHub installed on your phone. The brutal accuracy here is that many self-proclaimed "full-stack developers" are actually just prompt engineers with good Googling skills and AI assistants doing the heavy lifting. The stack isn't MERN or LAMP - it's just "Ask AI, copy, paste, pray it works." Debugging strategy? Open another AI tab!

The duality of modern developers: initially impressed by shiny new AI features, followed immediately by the desperate search for the "off" button. GitHub Copilot might finish your code, but it also finishes your patience when it confidently suggests the wrong solution for the fifth time in a row. The real 10x developer move isn't using AI—it's knowing exactly when to turn it off.

The evolution of developers has taken a tragic turn! Back in the glory days, programmers were depicted as muscular chads who wrote code without AI assistance or Stack Overflow, built entire games in Assembly language (absolute madlads), crafted mission-critical code for Moon landings, and fixed memory leaks by manually tweaking pointers. Fast forward to today, and we've devolved into bizarre creatures who can't center a div without Googling it for the 500th time, beg ChatGPT to fix basic syntax errors, get trapped in Vim like it's some kind of developer prison (":q! anyone?"), and somehow manage to create three new bugs while fixing just one. The brutal reality check hits hard. We went from programming gods to dependency-addicted gremlins who can't function without our precious tools. Progress?
